"Yeah, I missed Dragon Quest--so chalk that up with Final Fantasy and the couple times Chrono Trigger has been released.  That's still way less than Super Mario Bros appearing on no fewer than four Nintendo systems."

Wrong. Final Fantasy I appeared on the NES, PS1, GBA, Wonderswan Color, PSP, and Wii VC at the very least. So that one game is greater than SMB1. So don't tell me that all of S-E's re-releases are less than just SMB1.


Mobile as well. I can buy it on the blackberry. 


So S-E games and the releases I can confirm:

FF1: NES, MSX2, PS1, Wonderswan Color, GBA, PSP, Wii VC, Mobile, iPhone

FF2: NES, PS1, Wonderswan Color, GBA, PSP, Wii VC, Mobile, iPhone

FF3: NES, DS, Wii VC

FF4: SNES, PS1, Wonderswan Color, FOMA, GBA, DS, Wii VC, PSP

FF5: SNES, PS1, GBA

FF6: SNES, PS1, GBA

FF7: PS1, PC, PSN

FF8: PS1, PC, PSN

FF9: PS1, PSN

FF11: PC, PS2, 360

FF13: PS3, 360

DQ1: NES, MSX, NEC PC-9801, Sharp X68000, Super Famicom, GBC, Mobile

DQ2: NES, MSX, SFC, Super Famicom, GBC, Mobile

DQ3: NES, SNES, GBC, Mobile

DQ4: NES, PS1, DS

DQ5: Super Famicom, PS2, DS

DQ6: Super Famicom, DS

Secret of Mana: SNES, FOMA, Wii VC, iPhone

Chrono Trigger: SNES, PS1, DS

FF Tactics: PS1, PSN

Those are just off the top of my head, and can be adjusted.


Added more

Now do one of Nintendo franchises.  Don't forget, the Virtual Console counts. I'm tempted, but I really should start my homework...


okay

Super Mario Bros, 2,3- NES, SNes in all star, Wii VC, All Star on Wii, GBA

Zelda 1 2- NES, Zelda Collectors edition (Free), Wii VC, GBA

Lttp- SNES, GBA, VC

Black Label NES games- NES, maybe and the VC and Ecards or Free with Animal Crossing GC

Punch-out- nes, VC, free on animal crossing

F-zero, Snes, VC

Star Fox- Snes, VC

Star fox 64- 64/VC

Metroid- NES-gba-vc, free on other games

and basically most of the time it goes on like this

Original Release, Being available on the VC then maybe on a handheld, then sometimes offered up as a freebie or rarely on a contemporary 2 to 3 game compliation in the place of what would have normally been a single game, the super mario bros series is the main exception.  considering the time span of up to 25 years for some of these that isn't excessive at all

the reason to repackage games is to make them available again to a new audience or allow an old fan to reobtain a favorite- and it isn't exclusive to video games- you can still buy new copies of Alice in Wonderland- do you fault publishers for keeping classic books in print? if you do your a jerk

Personally I'd say namco is the king of reissues, how many collections have they released with just Rally-x, Pacman, Galaga, Dig Dug and Xevious?

Not to mention Walt Disney eats  Cuban children.


I can see how that would bother you but have you tasted Cuban children?  They're delicious!


I will admit, I have tried some Cuban in my earlier years, but lately I have aquired a taste for the Dutch.

In my defense, does anyone on here honestly still watch the disney channel and their old cartoon movies? I doubt it. Besides, Nickolodean 4life, now those are classics. I watch Hey Arnold everyday. Oh yeah, this thread is about Nintendo. They are pretty great too. :P


I watch the Disney Classics with my nephews and nieces.  They still love them and so do I, and I'm 26.  Lots of people watch movies they loved when they were kids with their kids.  Disney keeps opening the vault for a reason, people still buy the movies.


I guess if you have children, they may enjoy some of them, but this leads me to another thing I hate about Disney, their vault. It isn't even cool like the one in fallout, it is just where they hoard their old movies. Then, they capitilize on old movies by announcing their rerelease with a few minor goodies and capitilize on it again by announcing its reemergence into that said vault.

That's not defense. If you had strictly talked about Disney in recent years it would be. You brought stuff over ten years old, which invalidates that "defense".

? Only Goofy and Daffy Duck interest me from Disney.I do not like their current movies, nor their past ones. Same with cartoons. Nickolodean has better cartoons and characters. Can I make my opinion any clearer? Also, Disney's amusement parks are overrated . Not to mention Walt Disney eats  Cuban children.


How is basically going "well do you agree they suck now?" a defense of "I thought they always sucked"?



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Re-releases rule!!!!

How did I basically say "well do you agree they suck now?" Didn't you do something like this with one of my other posts on a separate thread? You made a false assumption about a phrase that I said and the meaning behind said phrase. You then looked at one word, completely ignoring the rest of what I said, throwing everything out of context. Besides, it was a ridiculous response to a ridiculous response where I was labeled insane because of my beliefs about a company who creates fictional characters. Also, honestly answer the question I asked in my previous post.  I defended myself by asking a question with a seemingly obvious answer over whether or not  anyone honestly is still interested in Disney (both their classic, and modern ips) and and their viewing habits of said content. Of course, I was generalizing, the same way most could claim noone prefers colorless tv, dial up internet, etc. although there will be one who claims they prefers/ likes it. If you just want me to tell why I dislike disney, I will tell you:

Horrendously boring characters: Minnie Mouse, Mickie Mouse, multiple princesses (they did not make most of these up although, they managed to make a boring story, just as boring in cartoon form), Bambi, Lilo, Stitch, Winnie the Pooh, etc

Their Vault

Their movies involving history are not even close to being correct and have caused some widespread misconceptions about historical events( Pochantas, Anastasia)

Reliance on female centered movies, tv shows.

Their ips are associated with subpar video games with  a few exceptions(Epic Mickey, KH, and supposedly Duck Tales)

Not to mention their buyout of Pixar and Marvel, which should have remained independent.

 Finally Walt Disney eats Cuban children

Edit: Apparently, Anastasia is not actually made by Disney.

Also, Disney creates sluts at an accelerated rate.(Miley Cyrus, Ashley Tisdale, Vanessa Hudgens, etc.)

Yep it was Don Bluth, creator of Dragon's Lair, and the insanely well animated secret of NIMH,

To Homer

plus "reliance of females" so your a misogynist?

What once made Disney's movie great was the quality of Disney's work was incredible, Movies like Alice in Wonderland, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White or Snow White stay around is because most people agree their great (even though Snow White has all the character of a tooth pick, and amazingly the prince has less),

Frankly you come off as a bit of an angsty teenager, I don't like it because its for children, Nicktoons with their bodily fluids humor or flat social plotical stories are better because they were contemporary in my youth, etc. It is the type of arguement one might hear from a 12 year old, but as an adult your rationale should be formed more distinctly. Boring stories? What makes them boring.  Even if you don't like something it isn't necessary to refuse to see things from perspectives outside your own.

Examples

I don't like any final fantasy past the first one, but I will admit the music, visuals, and art direction is consistently superb in the series

I don't like metal gear solid, because I find the controls to be poorly designed, the general gameplay and level design dull (I prefer stealth in which you are weak and being caught puts you in a desperate struggle, not throwing a few more gaurds out), and  the story seems ludicrous, But I can understand that other people prefer a focus on the type of stealth present in MGS and it would nullify level design complaints and some people like conspiracy stories

I'd take shining force over fire emblem any day because I prefer the art, music, and more "arcade" style gameplay, others like the challenge one misstep destroying a carefully planned

I find Koei's sim games terribly boring, I love the history part, but the player is too far removed from the action, but if you like management and macro conflicts they must be the best (I assume)

It isn't difficult to allow your opinion to be strong but allow other's there without becoming condescending

 

Also being bought out by disney is the best thing that could have happened to marvel considering how consistently mismanaged marvel tended to be, how long after Disney bought out marvel was Marvel vs. Capcom 3  announced? Xmen the arcade game was also rereleased, I doubt marvel would have ever allowed for that on their own according considering how far up their own butts their management tended to get

for pixar personally, don't care, if your concerned if it will effect pixar's style, has it? Personally I'd like to see disney drop the self improvement themes and go back to telling a story for its own sake and not for some overarcing thematics

Ugh no. Disney is horrendous. Their movies stink. Even pirates of the caribean and tron were decent at best. Pixar and Marvel are the only redeeming qualities of Disney, and even then, didn't they just buy them out?


You're speaking as if they never gave us The Lion King, or any other of their timeless classics that never age.

I disliked the lion king, jungle book, bambi, everything with mickey mouse, anastasia, etc. Goofy and donald duck were amazing though.Also their tv channel  is absolutely horrendous.


Aladdin and Lion King for the victorious bonus lap...



Yes.

www.spacemag.org - contribute your stuff... satire, comics, ideas, debate, stupidy stupid etc.

Yeah it's getting kind of annoying, I mean I like a re-release of a good game as much as anyone but it gets to a saturation point where I'm just sick of it
